Traveler's tips
Sunset at San Juan Beach, which is just a 1-minute car drive from The Little Surfmaid Resort, is a mesmerizing spectacle. I realized it's a popular time for both tourists and locals to gather. To secure a great spot and fully appreciate the view, I made sure to arrive at the beach a little earlier than the expected sunset time to find a prime spot along the shoreline, whether it was on the sand, at a beachside café, or on a nearby viewpoint. Having my spot ready in advance ensured that I didn't miss the golden hour, and I could peacefully enjoy the breathtaking sunset over the ocean. Of course, I had my camera ready to capture the picturesque moment.
